i really enjoyed that the metro entrance is right outside. lines 8 and 9 are so convenient! it made getting around easy. the hotel has great restaurants and shops within a short walk, too. i found everything i needed super close by. it was so nice to have everything right there!
the room i had was pretty small. it felt a bit tight with luggage. some additional space would really help.
